2009 will be the year of both the X360 and the PS3.
Contrary to what many fink, the X360 has at least as much price drop potential as the PS3 - at least in the United states:
PS3 launch price: $600 (only two years ago)
PS3 now price: $400 = price drop already $200 in 2 years
X360 launch price: $400 (three years ago!)
X360 now price: $300 = price drop only $100 in 3 years
Conclusion: logically the X360 has a lot more room to cut it's price.
On the other hand the PS3 has slightly stronger game line-up for 2009 which evens out the price advantage of the X360 a little bit.
Both consoles will sell 11-12 million in 2009.
